Say What! Now, now donТt stone me please unless they are gem stones throw as many as ya like! Something I have always done and I know most other people do it too..... when we start reading Matthew we get to all the begat stuff and begot it!! Huh? Mat 1:1-17 The book of the generation of Jesus Christ, the son of David, the son of Abraham. Abraham begat Isaac; and Isaac begat Jacob; and Jacob begat Judas and his brethren; And Judas begat Phares and Zara of Tamar; and Phares begat Esrom; and Esrom begat Aram; And Aram begat Aminadab; and Aminadab begat Naasson; and Naasson begat Salmon; And Salmon begat Boaz of Rahab; and Boaz begat Obed of Ruth; and Obed begat Jesse; And Jesse begat David the king; and David the king begat Solomon of her that had been the wife of Uriah; And Solomon begat Roboam; and Roboam begat Abia; and Abia begat Asa; And Asa begat Jehoshaphat; and Jehoshaphat begat Joram; and Joram begat Ozias; And Ozias begat Joatham; and Joatham begat Achaz; and Achaz begat Ezekias; And Ezekias begat Manasses; and Manasses begat Amon; and Amon begat Josiah; And Josiah begat Jechoniah and his brethren, about the time they were carried away to Babylon: And after they were brought to Babylon, Jechoniah begat Shealtiel; and Shealtiel begat Zorobabel; And Zorobabel begat Abiud; and Abiud begat Eliakim; and Eliakim begat Azor; And Azor begat Sadoc; and Sadoc begat Achim; and Achim begat Eliud; And Eliud begat Eleazar; and Eleazar begat Matthan; and Matthan begat Jacob; And Jacob begat Joseph the husband of Mary, of whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ. So all the generations from Abraham to David are fourteen generations; and from David until the carrying away into Babylon are fourteen generations; and from the carrying away into Babylon unto Christ are fourteen generations. Who has ever really stopped, read and thought about the above verses? I know I havenТt! But here we go because I know for a fact that there is some dirty laundry in JesusТ genealogy, and I would like to point these out to you as many of us think we are not qualified or canТt meet the requirements for ministry, or some of us have been told that we canТt do it because of whatever reason, if we look at Jesus heritage and who and how they were, we will see that even mighty men had faults!! Oh, that was Jesus, try the disciples too! Ok, lets take a look at the very fist name mentioned....... David...... Everyone should know who David is, the very King David and David and Goliath, David and Saul, etc etc, you can read about him in around 1Samuel 17........ we all know his exploits, but do we know his faults? David apparently was short freckled face and skinny as a rake, he was labelled УruddyФ some of his faults were he committed adultery, he felt sorry for a city and didnТt obey God in killing them all and his own people were defeated at war, He had Bethshebas husband killed, put him the firing line so he could have his wife who was pregnant to him, geez wouldnТt that make some juicy gossip in a church today? How about the next Name, Abraham....... Lets see, he slept with his mistress who helped out around the house, bit like the house cleaner or maybe the church cleaner...... that would raise some eyebrows today......... lets move on to Judas, he was the one jealous of Joseph and got rid of him down the hole........ Pheras must have been so bad that this name was only mentioned here.......Esrom was no better he was a nobody too....... Ok here is a name we know, Rahab, the HARLOT! Jesus was in lineage with harlot read it in Joshua 6v17 eeewwww I wonТt go on. Now, if Jesus was related to them, reword that one, If I was related to them, they were my brother my sister, my aunt my uncle etc... I would have been pretty well frowned upon today let alone back then! Actually it is quoted that Jesus came from Nazareth and the statement was made can any good thing come from Nazareth, in other words, can any good thing come from the SydneyТs King Cross, or Inala or woodridge etc etc....... Hey I had no father that I knew which basically in the old days would have made me almost a УBarstardФ in their terminology, mmmmm, I also was a street urchin, a bum, a cripple, a beggar, unclean as I had a discharge from my ear as a kid......... Have a look at your own life, heritage and lifestyle, we really are not that much different to Jesus are we? Yet he had the Holy Spirit, he had the power of God, he walked the walk and talked the talk, he fed people, he healed people, he delivered people from their oppression, I think he may have a few more warts then us in his heritage and yet he walked in the glory of God, he revealed GodТs kingdom to those around him, so what is stopping us? Stop and think about it, do we really have a valid excuse for not preaching the gospel, not sharing with people, not caring for others, not loving thy neighbour? No I know we donТt have a valid excuse, so what are we doing as believers, how can we help, care, love one another. Let GodТs love shine through you! Recently Sharon got that Satellite TV Christian channels thingy on, I am not really that interested, there have been some good movies on, but so far the preaching has been pretty boring, everyone seems to be asking for money, you ask any non Christian in the streets what do they think of church and their reply will most likely be, Уthey just want ya moneyФ. That is sooo sad! Is that all they see? Must be! You and I can make a difference though, we need to be like Jesus, human, we need to be Jesus with skin on as someone once said to me, we need to be there for people when they need it and not be so busy doing our own things. Too many people just go to church and go home again and that is their Christian walk, never helping anyone at any time anywhere, what was JesusТ ministry mainly consisted of other than preaching? It was healing, meeting the people where they were at. I donТt know why but people think ministry is preaching, from the pulpit........ Ministry is not a tool, nor is it a calling, neither is it doing УstuffФ for God, it is or well it should be, a lifestyle! The word Minister, means Уto serveФ we need to serve, because that is exactly what Jesus came and done and he said it too, have a read of Matthew 20v28, Jesus served those around him and that is why people came rushing to him! He ministered healing, he served healing, he served food, he served grace, mercy, love, peace, joy....... Are we Christians? We too should be like Christ and serve. People travelled days to meet with Jesus as they had heard about him being a servant, not having rules and regulations like the pharisees and saduccees, he was not a respecter of persons, we ought to be the same as him. We should have such a name that people will go out of their way to say Hi, or seek something from God through us, and I am talking about non Christians here, not people in the church!     О Э # #эс╙╚╙╚╙╚╙╚╙╚┴ h╧ Ih]zsh╧ Ih╧ IB*phh╧ Ih╧ I5БB*\Бphh╧ IB*CJaJph#h╧ Ih╧ I5Б>*B*CJaJph  '(?Є#╚┬7 #єччч╙╙──────┐gd╧ I$d╚7$8$H$a$gd╧ I$ДhДШ■7$8$H$^Дh`ДШ■a$gd╧ I $7$8$H$a$gd╧ I $7$8$H$a$gd╧ I  #■21Рh:p╧ I░В. ░╞A!░p"░p#Рp$Рp%░░┼░┼ Р─ЖЬ@@ё @ NormalCJ_HaJmH sH tH DA@Є бD Default Paragraph FontRi@є │R  Table NormalЎ4╓ l4╓aЎ (k@Ї ┴(No Listp$@Єp SCEnvelope Address!Д@ Д№ ДЇ ДЁ&А+D╝/Д┤^Д@ 5БCJ OJQJ^JR%@R SCEnvelope Return6БCJOJQJ^JaJ *      '(?
